I was reading this morning Peter Berg is actively shopping around yet another FNL project, most likely a movie continuing on where the TV series left off. Chandler and Britton are both supposedly involved.

That would be awesome but I don't think a movie would be very successful if it's based on the TV show.

Can't see a movie being as successful as the show. The complexity, the emotional spectrum, and realism that Berg created on the show doesn't seem like it could translate well to the big screen. The ending for FNL was perfect, what is left for them to do? Continue the story with the Taylor's in Connecticut?

I've always liked the original movie more than the TV show personally. I've only seen the first season and stopped midway thru season 2 so maybe I'm in the minority

I figured as much going into the season. I still havent been able to watch it, I have it on my cpu, though. I'm currently going through the first four seasons again.

I certainly disagree with the proposition that the writers dont know how to finish off the seasons. While it would have been great to continue with season one's story. I thought the ending was rather powerful, with Micahel C. Hall's emotion. That final run in with you know who, is money.

Season 2's ending was sad as hell for obvious reasons. But everything works well story wise. Lila is a horrible character, though.

Season 3's ending was fine, from what I remember. Although the season kind of sucked. I've only seen it once, however...so it's not that fresh in my mind right now.

And Season 4's ending was absolutely fantastic.

Dexter may be tailing off now, perhaps. I still have to watch all of season 5 for myself. But up to this season, Dexter has easily been one of the best shows on television. And I think it warrants the amount of praise it has received for sure. As Cranston is to Walt White, Michael C. Hall is just perfect in his role/craft.

I agree with this, but the Breaking Bad hate I have to disagree with. It's the best show on tv, so it makes sense that it's the most talked about here.

I didn't say I hated it. I don't know if I do. I tried watching the first few episodes a few years ago and stopped, but since then I've heard you just have to power through to the awesome. I probably will. I was just commenting that BB is dominating conversation when there are other good shows out there too.
